Okay so I answered my last question BUT I know what I have typed was not "organized" like I was taught, but it seems

cleaner, so I believe I'm just a little foggy on what to put in for "Product Name", as we were shown in the video. Would it be Fish?

fish.php
<?php 

class Fish {
  public $common_name = 'default_name';
  public $flavor = 'default_flavor';
  public $record_weight = 0;

  function __construct($name, $flavor, $record){
    $this->common_name = $name;
    $this->flavor = $flavor;
    $this->record_weight = $record;
  }
  public function getinfo(){
    return "Fish". $this->$name, 
                   $this->$flavor, 
                   $this->$record;
  }
}
$bass = new Fish("Largemouth Bass", "Excellent", "22 pounds 5 ounces");
?>



}

?>

I think this is wrong : return "Fish". $this->$name, $this->$flavor, $this->$record; you should write : return "Fish" . $this->common_name . $this->flavor .
$this->record_weight ;
